Re: IML: Business stealing members addresses from the IML

[David Whitney <david.whitney@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

David and others on this list (yes, me too) are receiving spam from people
who "harvest" e-mail addresses using software that reads the contents of an
individual's or a server's address book.  These spammers use software that
allows them to pretend to be a trusted sender to entice you to open the
message.  There are also viruses that will cause a message to be sent from
the infected computer to everybody in the owner's address book.  This is
just another fact of internet life.

You can protect yourself somewhat by setting your e-mail software to
indicate your return address as joeblow"at"service"dot"com and never
sending your proper address in the body of a message.  If you have a fixed
IP address (most of us don't), you are more likely to be a target.  A good
firewall will also help.

 Subject: IML: Business stealing members addresses from the IML

 Hi friends,

 I received a solicitation e-mail today, which I will attach below, that
 was obviously generated from a past posting I made to our list.  I think
 this needs to be address by the people who are in charge of our list. This
 business got my e-mail address without my permission and copied my posting
 in order to solicit my business.  This is wrong and should not be allowed.
 This kind of SPAM could discourage members from posting their questions
 and instead e-mail individuals seeking information that could that could
 benefit all of us.  This undermines the purpose of our list.

 Thank you,

 David Whitfield
